For chicks though isn't it? I don't know any guys that are into it.
Nah there's plenty of guys into it
Lots of boys get into it. It's childrens stories that level up with the readers/viewers as they age. First book's for 8-10 year olds so it reads like it's written by Enid Blyton, and by the time they get to the last one its Hunger Games level in style/themes etc.
Quite clever writing and marketing at the time for hanging on to the audience from their childhood to late adolescence. Then nostalgia gets them and they're hooked. A lot of boys might drop off when their balls drop and there's not really anything to wank off to. Hence the perception that it's more for girls as they get older.

Same. I think I saw it as quite lame compared to Star Wars.
Instead of punishing mortgage holders and renters, we should introduce a compulsory savings scheme where a percentage of your wage is put into your super. Would be far more effective than raising interest rates.

Just got back from the gym with the kid.
Not, not that kind, the silly kind with weights and bros, the kind with the trampolines and things to swing on and roll on.
They need to do these gymnastics open play days for dads who are adamant they could still do stuff like swinging and jumping and climbing in a graceful and controlled yet powerful manner.

Did baby boomers or their kids have it tougher in buying a home and paying off a mortgage? — ABC News
When single mum Kerrie Boylett wanted to buy a home in 1995, almost all lenders turned her away.
When single mum Kerrie Boylett wanted to buy a home in 1995, almost all lenders turned her away.
Ms Boylett eventually convinced one lender to give her a loan. She bought her first home in Coogee, NSW for $150,000, with a deposit of 15 per cent (which she says was based on a decade of her saving).
"They [millennials] want you know, the latest mobile phone, the latest iPad, they want a nice car, they want to go on holidays, they still want to go out to restaurants they pay $20 or $30 for a drink if they go out, have a nice time," she says.
"Instead of thinking, 'alright, I want my house in the city', look outside the box, go outside in a regional area … Keep it for four years. And then after four years sell it.”
Lol
Boomers just make it so easy to take the piss out of them..

Didn't go out, and had friends around for spaghetti bolognese, she says.

Aaand now I’ve had good cause to use that quote across Twatter, Farcebook and BonkFooty three times in three days on three very different subjects. Think the end days may be upon us. Or I have finally become oldmanyellsatcloud.jpg

Another Twitter user pointed out that Ms Boylett, the former administration general manager for hospitality giant Merivale, received a $2million inheritance from founder John Hemmes in 2015, which likely contributed to her property portfolio later in life.

Ah but you see, back then, it wasn't a 'desirable inner suburb on the beach'. It was a house that was 25 minutes away from the city, back when the population of Sydney was around 3.5 million. After all, the median house price across Sydney in 1994 was $169,000.Did baby boomers or their kids have it tougher in buying a home and paying off a mortgage? — ABC News

What people are bitching about with housing is the fact that people are living longer and so when Gen X and Millennials are going into the market place, the Boomers are still occupying homes in the desirable areas. So their kids are forced to buy homes that are now an hour away from the city or more if they want to get the equivalent entry point into the housing market. But an hour commute is a lot different to 25 minutes, which is why the prices of those inner suburb houses gets driven up to $1m+.
The issue is that you're just caught in a time when both the largest and second largest generations in world history are both vying for houses in the same market. That's what drove the parabolic growth in housing value over the last 30 years. From here housing prices will still continue to increase (simply because people will always want to live closer to the CBD), but it won't be the 400% that it's gone up by in those three decades. Mainly due to things like remote work etc.
